Formative assessment fosters student motivation and achievement through self-regulation. When students self-assess their work, figure out how close they are to their goals, and plan next steps to improve, they are actively learning. Some students need instruction on how to self-assess and use feedback effectively. Feedback affects students differently depending on their characteristics, so teachers should provide positive feedback and suggest small, achievable improvements for unmotivated students. Using learning targets keeps instruction coherent for students.
Measure & evaluation group 3 presentation
- 1. Motivational Benefits of Formative AssessmentStudent self-assessment fosters both motivation and achievement.
- 2. Self-regulation – when students:
- 3. Size up their work
- 4. Figure how close they are to their goal
- 5. Plan what they need to do to improve
- 6. Students that self-regulate are learning as they do so and has been to be a characteristic of successful, motivated learners.
- 7. Some students need instruction on how to use feedback and how to do self-assessment.
- 8. Some may claim that feedback is solely “the teacher’s job”
- 9. The effects of feedback not only depend on the information itself, but the characteristics of the people who send (teacher) and receive (student) the message.
- 10. Not all students use graded work formatively, for those unsuccessful or unmotivated students formative feedback should begin with statements of accomplishment and suggest small, doable steps for improvement.
- 11. All students have a better chance of succeeding if their learning targets keep what students perceive as “your class” coherent. Group 4: Brittney Lam, Blake Rhein, Amy Bagley
- 12. Motivational Benefits of Formative AssessmentOutside sourcesPlan what students need to learn and what teachers need to teach.
- 13. Can be brief short-answer test, or a short paragraph telling what they know

- 16. Formative assessments are used to keep you apprised of student’ progress. Running records, discussions, observation of the children at their centers, pretests, and journal entries are all ways to learn more about what and how the child is learning. Teachers use this information to diagnose the needs and strengths of the students before prescribing a plan of instruction for them.
- 17. Formative assessments are used to help you create flexible groups, alert you to the need for additional help, discover concepts that need to be re-taught, or reveal students who need more enrichment. Formative assessments are there to support improvement in the teaching/learning process. They make up the meat of the discussions you will have about the effectiveness of the instruction.
